That’s a widely speculative conspiracy. Do you have any evidence?

are you asking that if I am snowden or assange and have managed to uncover the work of 3 letter organisations. No, just like people speculate about why Tether is still alive. I speculate that they might have cut a deal with the various 3 letter agencies to provide data on USD -> USDT flows which will help deanonymize huge branches of the transaction graph. In that way 3 letter agencies can keep an eye on the flows. In return all cases against them will be held up and will not move fast.

In the case of secretive 3 letter organisations you can only observe their actions by second-order effects. In this case the lack of significant prosecution against Tether.
